Believe Quote by Caryll Houselander
“It is a time of darkness, of faith. We shall not see Christ's radiance in our lives yet; it is still hidden in our darkness; nevertheless, we must believe that He is growing in our lives; we must believe it so firmly that we cannot help relating everything, literally everything, to this almost incredible reality.”

![“For the first time in this 11 years--I have come to love the darkness--for I believe now that it is a part, a very, very small part of Jesus' dakness and pain on earth. You have taught me to accept it [as] a "spiritual side of 'your work'"... (Mother Teresa, quoated in Kolodiejchuk, p. 208).” quote by Brian Kolodiejchuk](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/871/brian-kolodiejchuk-47338_darkness_for-the-first-time-in-this-11-years-i-ha_1640277.jpg)
